Culture of Ladakh with Yoga teacher
I was wondering where to travel next year not in Europe. I wanted to learn something, I wanted to experience something unexpected , I was looking something for my soul. One of my friend from Florida suggested me to see Ladakh through Akash who is owner of indiahistoricaltours.com. I messaged him about Ladakh and he came up with idea of traveling along with yoga coach Sandeep. yoga is for soul & Ladakh is for your eyes.
I was already in touch with ladies of my Kitty and we 12 ladies decided to go India in the month of May 2024. Whole process of deciding itinerary & transferring payment was very smooth with Akash. He was always just one call away. Jannat from his team was always checking our well being through out the tour. This tour was full of ancient yoga wisdom, Sandeep had it all. Buddhism, Hinduism, Tantra , Yoga asana, Breath control, science of anabolism & catabolism. Everyday we started with 45 minutes session of Yogasanas & breath control along with Sandeep and evenings ended with Mediation.
Sandeep always had surprises for us. Whenever we thought we know enough, he came up with new practice. He kept us progressing all other days. Now we each one have our own self yoga practice which is designed by Sandeep. Sandeep said each individual is different. So choose your asanas & practice wisely according to your nature, behaviour & routine.
All eight days passed so smoothly. We wanted to stay longer. The walks we had into the streets of Ladakh are unforgettable. The people of Ladakh are are so sweet & humble. Everyone was very welcoming, they wanted us to see their house. someone offered Ladakhi tea and dishes. These people of Ladakh I will never forget. Do not bring too much luggage because domestic flight from Delhi to Ladakh charges rs 500/kg. It is two hours flight. Bring your favourite book or download movie for this flight. Although the views of mountains will keep you busy after one hour of the flight.
The monasteries of Ladakh are unique and personally no offence but I found those equally beautiful to Bhutan. I will personally choose Ladakh over Bhutan. Yes , Bhutan has its own charm. In comparison to Bhutan , in Ladakh travelling distance from one place to another is very less. In one day we are able to cover many monasteries. Buddhist Lama over here are friendly and ready to bless you and excited to chit chat. I have travelled previously on escorted tours with luxury travel companies but this time it was different. Escorted by Sandeep and budget arrangements by Akash impressed us. I will highly recommend travellers to see india through Akash who suggests first class luxury within your budget range. Akash, you should make some profits too, honey. Lol
